Join the group to see pigeons for sale for most purposes, including racing and breeding.
If you love pigeons and keep them for pets, this group has great information for you.

4. Pigeon Nest
Pigeon Nest is a decent resource if you can find your way around it. The site seems to be somewhat lacking in some areas but very well set up in others.
The site offers nationwide coverage and lists hundreds of pigeons for sale but the search facility is pretty useless so it is a case of scrolling through pages to see if there are any of interest.
The one section where you can do a more targeted search is viewing the list of breeders in Texas.
Breeders register with their contact details and also list the types of pigeons in their lofts that are for sale.
5. ClassifiedNY
Though a nationwide site, ClassifiedNY has an impressive number of listings for pigeons for sale in Texas.
There were 12 pages with each page holding 10 to 15 individual advertisem*nts.
Like all classified sites, rogue ads for anything but pigeons can get caught up in the search but even allowing for this, there’s still 100+ ads with pigeons to buy.
The other impressive feature of this site is the wide range of pigeons in the listings.
Naturally, there are plenty of racing, homers, high flyers and tumblers but numerous fancy breeds can be found including Lucerne gold collar, Jacobin, giant runt, king and archangel.
Simply click on any ad that you like the look of and get further info and contact details for the seller.
6. Craigslist
We know that Craigslist is a resource for everything and anything but we found it was surprisingly good for pigeons for sale in Texas.
At the time of writing, there were 30+ listings from all over the state.
The listings themselves are a bit hit-and-miss. Some quote prices but not all, most have pictures but few have detailed titles. Mostly simply say “pigeons” so you have to click on each ad to see what’s up for sale.
Among them are plenty of racing and homing pigeons along with Indian fantails, capuchins, Modena and frillbacks.
Remember, Craigslist isn’t the only online classifieds site that lists pigeons for sale. You can also try Birdsnow and Hoobly
